36) In accordance with the conclusions of October 2014 and March 2015 European Councils, the new governance system should
facilitate the coordination of national energy policies and foster regional cooperation. How important would you rate regional
cooperation in the course of integrated climate and energy plans?
Very
important
As part of their national integrated plans Member
States should jointly develop regional objectives,
standards and common coherent strategies on the
relevant dimensions of the Energy Union.
The national plans should describe how they reflect
regional integration and cooperation on the Energy
Union domains.
Member States should consult relevant other
Member States on national plans before their
submission.
The plans should provide clear account of these
consultations and how they are incorporated in the
plans.
The Commission should guide the process, and
develop appropriate fora for consultations of draft
plans and regional cooperation where required.
